After two outstanding 12inch releases on Dial Records Roman Flügel continues his collaboration with Fatty Folders, a full-length debut album presenting a colorful selection of essential works. Also known as Eight Miles High, Soylent Green and a part of Sensorama and Alter Ego- Roman Flügel always has been a main influence of the Dial Records family. From his first releases on Ladomat and the co-owned Playhouse imprint he passed the ways of Dial artists like Carsten Jost, Lawrence and Panther Du Prince uncountable times- in clubs and on parties as well as production-wise. So the idea of having an album grew in both, Roman Flügel’s and the Label’s mind since ages. With Fatty Folders the result is a truly masterpiece. Roman Flügel’s unique and unexpected productions introduce us to an excitingly wide range of eclecticism, modernism and dandyism under a groove. Every single track is a magical journey itself, the whole album a universe deep like the ocean. Here comes a true sound scientist who knows how to enchant the dancers, the connaisseurs, the lovers.
